Abstract

In order to attain precise formation control of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarm in challenging environments, the external disturbances should be accommodated. In this paper, a novel bearing-only prescribed-time formation control scheme is proposed to address this issue. The scheme includes a super-twisting sliding-mode disturbance observer to handle the external disturbances and a distributed bearing-only control protocol to achieve the desired formation smoothly within a prescribed time based on the estimations and bearing measurements. Theoretical analysis confirms the finite-time convergence of the disturbance estimation and the formation achievement. Comparative simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
